"Kodomo no Omocha"
Both today and tomorrow, I've got time to kick back.
My family of four and I are going to stay the night.
Put on an Egyptian front and become a sphinx,
and for an American feeling, Texas!
When you're sitting pretty, with enough and to spare,
and yet you always shilly-shally,
and your bitter face and bitter feelings both teeter-totter,
it's time to get out of there!
I am feeling Ultra Relax,
a wonderful, invincible Relax.
A one-step-above kind of Deluxe.
I may be a little jumbled, but when I'm called on, ba-ba-ba-ba-bang!
I always feel Relax,
a humble, simple, sort of Deluxe.
Bright! Clear! Alert-headed, peep-peep!
Keep your eyes on me, okay!?
My name is Kurata sana, first year junior high school student
Aoki Award-winning writer Mama, and squirrel Maro-chan.
My manager, driver, Rei-kun. He's also my ex-boyfriend.
A mysterious white Bat Babbit. What? What? What? In China...
Hayama Akito, a lone wolf who does Karate, my dear friend.
Matsui Fuka, my Osaka-dialect-speaking best friend who I met in the bathroom!
Ah...
Sana-chan!!
Working Hard Recovering From an Injury
Stop it!
Stop it! Stop it! No!
Sana-chan!
Nao... What are you doing?!
Sana-chan!
Naozumi-kun... hurts... because of our relationship...
They dare do this!
Oh crap!
Don't do it! Don't do it! Naozumi-kun!
Let go, Sana-chan!
I said not to do it!
You're weak.
Naozumi-kun! Please don't get mad!
We're sorry...
You think it's okay if you say Sorry? Idiots!
Damn you! What the hell were you guys doing!
Naozumi-kun is scary...
I'M the one who's scary?
Wait!
Stop... you can't!
You bitches!
I'm gonna kill you all! Naozumi-kun!
No!
Sana-chan! Does it hurt?
It's just a bit swollen.
It's swelling?
My fans did this...
I'm fine... I'm fine. I can still...
My leg really hurts!
Sana-chan!
Get a medic quickly... Wait, that's me!
The assistant director is a medic. [The assistant director does everything.]
This is bad... I think it may be fractured.
Fractured?
We should ask the doctor to check it out
There's a clinic in the village.
It's a fracture if the bone is cracked.
Bye, I'm off!
Sana-chan!
I'm sorry, Sana-chan I should've kept my guard up...
But I was leisurely taking a bath with the monkeys.
It's OK, it's OK, I was also taken by surprise.
I'll never forgive myself.
Ahh, what a nice hot spring!
Sana-chan is hurt
What are we gonna do about the movie?
It's too late to change actors now...
Let's continue.
The mood... has improved.
Ah. Wrong spelling. ["Clinic" spelled "Rare Cool Place"]
I think your leg is badly bruised.
Bruised?
Don't push her too hard.
Are you saying we should let her rest?
Well, it's not that bad.
What does that mean?!
You should be careful next time.
That's all then.
It's 2 AM. If you want to sleep then you should go to bed.
Oh yeah, just take that other room for the night.
You mean you want us to stay in the hospital?
I didn't mean it like that...
You'll have to quit the movie, Sana-chan.
Eh?
What are you talking about?
Does it hurt badly, Sana-chan?
Sana-chan, I don't want you to work too hard. Please quit?
I'm alright! It doesn't hurt!...
But this is serious.
Mako doesn't run or jump, right?
She just needs to walk around slowly!
That's true but...
It'll be fine, I can do it!
But I'm just saying what if...
I even protected my face!
But the bruises!
I'll cover them with makeup!
This is no good. I can't let you do this.
No! No! I'm gonna act!
When I decide something, I'm gonna do it till the end!
Sana-chan!
I don't care what you say! I won't agree! No!
Shimura-san has a hand fracture, but she still goes all over the place.
That wasn't a fracture, Sana-chan!
Rei-kun, I don't want to give my part to someone else.
Sana-chan, I want you to do a good job on the movie.
But...
Please, Rei-kun, let me keep acting in the movie.
I'm not gonna hurt myself.
If I can't do it, I'll tell you,
OK?
So the next morning...
Is it true that she was in Yamashita clinic?
Yeah, Granny Shimizu said so...
She spent a night in the clinic last night.
She's really hurt.
Of course, she was beaten up pretty badly.
So she won't act in the movie anymore?
Yeah, as we planned...
But...
Thank you for taking care of me!
She's full of energy
Rei-kun, am I heavy?
You're so heavy I want to fart!
Gero! Gero!
No he didn't say that!
Rei-kun, am I heavy?
You're not that heavy, you're really light.
See, I'll prove it! I can run 100 meters carrying you!
Follow them!
Why is he running so fast?
Hey, Rei-kun...
Yeah?
Don't act so worried in front of everyone.
This injury isn't that serious.
Got it, Sana-chan.
She's not gonna quit.
Damn her...
But it makes me mad...
that Naozumi-kun's fans did this to you!
You said it!
This is a crime! We should report it to the police!
Don't!
If we do it before the film is finished, it'll be a mess.
But we have to do something about this!
Wait 'till the movie's finished!
Fine
You feel bad now, don't you?
Sana-chan!
Sana-chan! How are you?
Sana-chan! Are you OK?
I'm fine!
It's just a little injury. I can go back to work now.
I see, I'm so glad.
It's not fine! Doesn't it hurt?
I'm alright! I'm ready to do my best!
Sorry for making you all worry!
That's really great.
Sana-chan if you're hurting just say so.
Don't force yourself to do anything.
Sure.
We were all worried but Kamura-kun was worried the most.
Oh?
He's been really depressed.
He's really sorry that his fans hurt you.
Don't think about this too much, Nao, OK?
I've had enough!
I'm quitting!
What are you saying?
You have so many good fans...
These are just a small minority!
That's enough! Stop it! I quit!
Naozumi...
[I wanna go back to the old days...]
I entered this world because I adored Sana-chan.
For my my fans to do this to Sana-chan...
Boom! Pow! Slam! Bang! A physical attack!
Nao...
Quitting?...
Absolutely unacceptable!
Sana-chan...
Maeda-san...
Please leave us alone for a bit.
Hey, I'm gonna do my best! You're gonna do your best too, right?
Come on, snap out of it!
I can't snap out of it...
They're really dirty...
Both the fans and the magazine reporters!
That's not something you can control.
That's a reporter's job... they have to make a living too!
Those fans only did this because they like you too much...
You being so angry at them is kind of sad.
You're really great...
For you to be able to think this way... It's unreal.
I can't be like you.
How can you not be angry that they this to you?
What do you mean? Of course I'm angry!
I wanna rub their noses green and smash their faces purple, over and over!
I wanna beat them up until they have broken skulls and serious broken bones!
I wanna beat them senseless!
But that's not right, so I have to think of something better!
But...
That's right, they beat me up because they wanted me to quit the movie.
I'm not going to quit just because I'm injured.
Since it'll make them unhappy, I'm going to act with you in the movie.
Haha...
Because of this, I can concentrate on making the movie great!
It's like killing two birds with one stone.
They'll get theirs!
Mama told me before...
Sana, enjoy yourself even under adversity.
Don't ask the impossible, Sensei!
The wise man says you should not brood over what you can't change.
I understand it in my head, but it's easier said than done.
Knock it off!
Anything I want to do... I'm gonna do it!
Sana-chan!
Are you alright?
I'm fine.
Compared to the pain of giving birth, this is nothing.
Have you ever given birth?
Ever been kicked in the balls? [Even if you say that...]
Yes! [Even if you say that...]
Who asked you guys!? [Even if you say that...]
We actors are imagination experts!
Let's just concentrate on our work!
Yeah.
Ahhhh...
Now I feel better.
When you can't take it any more you still have to do your best.
I'm sure he would say it like that.
Sana-chan, are you OK?
Piling up?
Today we're visiting the set of the white-hot movie "Mizu no Yakata".
I feel trouble...
What's "dabyrevyrev"?
It's "very very bad"!
OK, fat fat triangle
A heart on the dripping and draw wings
That's Babbit!
Help me!
Wake up, you can't die!
Leave me... just go!
How can you just leave me?!
We have a problem up in the mountains.
Not even the PHS phone works.
If you are watching this, please hurry and find our target.
What are you saying?
Is this a dream or hologram?
In the mountain wilderness, there are no people.
Yet out of nowhere comes Sana-chan.
This the front of the movie set.
Welcome!
Could this be Naozumi-kun?
The boy and girl who are starring in the movie: Sana-chan and Naozumi-kun!
I thought Sana-chan would be starving to death and have lots to gripe about.
But she's turned into a cute darling!
That's because I'm getting into the character.
Grownup actress!
This must be your influence.
It's the other way around, Sana-chan has taught me so much.
Wow! We're not worthy! We're not worthy!
Zoom shot!
What the magazine says is true!
Jealous! Jealous! Jealous!
That's not true!
We don't have that kind of relationship.
I got to use it!
This is sounding worse and worse.
Zoom shot!
Those two look really compatible.
It's different from the way you two interact.
When she's with the Naozumi-kun, she's all nice
Have you seen this?
It looks like they're dating!
What will you do? Is it OK, huh?
They're deep in the mountains together.
They're sure to get up to something!
Natsumi-nee-chan! You shouldn't use insinuating words.
Okay you two, let's get started!
OK!
Can you see the bandage on my leg?
Don't worry, the costume will cover it
I want to thank you for talking for me, Naozumi-kun
We're co-stars after all, I should help you
Yeah.
Kamura-san, OK! OK!
Sana-chan, OK! OK!
Scene 61: Mako and Hiroto scene.
OK... start...
What are you saying?
What?
It's your brother who did this to me...
High energy!
Are you OK, Sana-chan?
Sana-chan! Sana-chan!
I'm fine...
I'm sorry! Let's do it again, please!
Sana-chan...
The way Sana-chan said that... [Reading in a different tone!]
The filming is going very well.
Because I was hurt, I know how it feels...
Sana-chan's acting...
Is perfect for the role of Mako,
whose suffering has turned her into a ghost.
Since she got hurt she is able to get into the character in the movie.
I told you she was simple.
What is happening around her?
The atmosphere seems to be heavier than usual.
It's probably nothing.
The people working around her feel it deeply.
It's like being stabbed with a knife.
It sounds like it hurts a lot... It left a big impression.
Always...
Use your experience to improve your acting.
You... You... You... You...
You're so strong!
Cut... OK.
Sana-chan, here's some painkiller.
OK
Sana-chan, let's stop and rest for today.
I knew starting work immediately was a bad idea.
It's OK! It's OK!
"Mou Man Tai!" That's Cantonese.
It still hurts a bit, but my heart is full of energy.
Wow! Brown belt! You passed the exam!
Congratulations, I'm glad for you, Hayama!
Hayama, I'll do my best...
You do your best too!
Nao...
Those girls came to apologize.
They say their emotions got out of control and made them do that.
There's no point in apologizing to me.
They should apologize to Sana-chan.
Yup
What? What? They came to apologize?
There's no point, you don't have to.
Eh?
Even though you're apologizing, you still hate me, right?
Ah...
Well I hate you too!
Jeez, the kid is provoking them again!
Watch me work.
Watch me make a great movie!
When you realize how much effort I put into this film,
You'd better acknowledge how hard I worked for it...
So cool!
What? [She got a fever!]
Sana-chan...
I heard that Sana-chan has a fever.
Yeah, maybe because she worked too hard.
Umm... Can I see her for a little while?
Just for a little while.
Get better, get better, get better...
Amayah... Amayah...
Backwards?
Amayah...
Hayama.
Naozumi-kun stays with her as she falls asleep.
What happened here?
Is there something between Sana and Kamura Naozumi?
I never heard Sana-chan say anything about this.
This says they're lovers.
Did something happen up in the mountains...?
No, it happened before!
You are...
Big eyebrows, big nose hair...
That's wrong!
Big eyebrows.. Long eyelashes... Bloody nose...
And loves to fart too!
I'm Ishida!
Ahh! Thick and bloody Ishida-kun, what did you say?
Actually I told Sana-chan my feelings before she left.
You told her?
Courageous!
She turned me down because she had a relationship with Naozumi-kun.
Wait a minute, are you serious?
If you're lying, I'll shave off your eyebrows!
It's true!
You can tell I'm not lying by looking at my eyebrows!
What he meant was look at his eyes... but we know what you meant.
Sana-chan really told you she and Kamura-kun are going out?
It's true!
I thought she wasn't interested in anyone.
I told Hayama I would help him get together with Sana...
but now can it still happen?
But... I can't believe it.
What will poor Hayama think?
What about me?
Akito-kun did you see this?
Don't show it to him!
Oh that, I saw it... My sister reads that stuff.
So then Akito-kun this...
I'm totally fine with it.
But Akito-kun, isn't this important to you?
I don't...
I don't care...
What do you mean?
Tsuyoshi, you once told me...
that she takes in lots of stray dogs...
Yeah...
She took me in... Maybe I got used to being taken care of...
Now that she's not around I don't care anymore.
Ah?
Even if she's dating Kamura... it's OK with me.
Really, is it really OK?
Just forget about it already.
[And after school...]
Hayama Aki! Wait up!
What?
Well...
Do you want me to pretend to be your dad this time?
You big idiot!
Me and my Osaka friends discussed it...
Takaishi-kun and Shizu-chan make a really good couple.
I was worried that they're be uncomfortable with me.
You can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Good! [2 points!]
Really, I'm relieved now.
And my relief is really thanks to you.
I thought if you were my real boyfriend, it wouldn't be too bad.
I don't mean I want to replace Sana.
I'm not good enough.
Would you be... my real boyfriend?
It's fine, It's totally fine.

Really that's ridiculous...

and the whole earth is spinning the wrong way.
So at this point now, yeah at this point now,
